This is a beautifully presented full-colour anthology of Australian paintings and poems. Arranged thematically with related activities, it is designed for students in middle and upper secondary. The book exposes students to areas of art and poetry in a non-threatening way, so that they enjoy the experience of form, colour and words. Celebrated artists and poets, as well as students' work, are represented in this collection. The attractive full-colour presentation will enable teachers to take full advantage of the fact that many students find it easier to talk about paintings than literary texts and that this paired approach can enhance their appreciation of both art and poetry. There is also a wide range of suggested activities including photography, song writing, research, discussion, display making, word processing, computer assisted design graphics and drawing.
